The food was not only delicious, but there was an abundance--hot, fresh, and made with so much care. In the middle of long days on the line, that kind of support means everything. It wasn't just a meal, it felt like genuine community backing us up. Your generosity and kindness did not go unnoticed. We are so grateful for businesses like yours that stand with teachers and uplift the community. Highly recommend Yolanda's Tamales--not just for the amazing food, but for the heart behind it.

So my wife found herself in need for some food for a small holiday gathering for her and a few…read morefriends recently,so I was thinking tamales from my favorite tamales spot in Sacramento would do the trick-so I reached out to Yolanda's Tamales. The woman who took took my order was very friendly and helpful.I ended up ordering a dozen tamales($42)-half chicken half pork with a small side of beans rice and salsa.I also decided to order something for myself since I was going to be there-so I added the iconic Yo-Burrito($14)-but more on that later. I made my way out there and the woman working there had my order ready right on time,which is always appreciated-the place is a smaller spot with a few tables but it's much more setup as a to-go spot in my opinion-which is perfect. The tamales that we got for the party were pretty much perfect-nice size-flavorful sauce,tender meat,tasty masa-everybody loved em,as I expected-one can never go wrong if your in the mood for some tamales in the Sacramento area-they are the best-but I want to talk about that burrito. I've had a lot of burritos in my day-in fact I've spent a little time as a burrito reviewer on another app,so I don't say this too lightly-but the Yo-burrito is probably the most unique burrito you can get in Sacramento and most likely a top 3 overall burrito in Sacramento.The fillings are pretty generic,rice,beans,cheese,pic de gallo but where they turn it up a level is when they add 2 of their signature tamales into the burrito as the protein and man does that change everything.The combo of those tamales in the middle of all the flavors from the burrito fillings is just dynamite-I highly recommend it-if you consider yourself a burrito connoisseur-your resume will be incomplete if you haven't had the pleasure of trying this great item. In closing-when you find yourself craving some homemade style tamales,I would definitely give these guys a call-they are pretty great-a very solid options for parties or holiday gatherings or if u just want a tamale for lunch that day. PS.....One quick tip-this place offers a lower price for cash payment-so if you're looking to keep costs down,that's an option...Also this place has a history in winning the taco throwdowns in Sacramento,so I'm assuming their tacos are pretty great here as well,though I've never tried them myself.

I was in the area getting some work done on my truck and was given the heads up that this taco…read moretruck next to the Mexican meat market was pretty good. Located right on the corner of Marconi and Howe Latin Flame food truck had a steady stream of customers pulling up and ordering. I went with the Carnitas super burrito and a canned Diet Coke. Food came out pretty fast as I was only the second person in line. I was shocked when I unwrapped the burrito. It was massive. Plenty of meat along with onions and cilantro (just how I like it) and solid rice and beans. The burrito was top notch and at a great price too, $11. Really great quality on the food here. Before I left I also wanted to try their lengua meat. I love lengua and when a place has it I make sure to try at least a couple tacos. This lengua was fire! Soft but firm and great flavor. I would come back for the lengua tacos alone. Really good food at this local food truck and the guy running it was nice and quick with the orders.

Once we got the food I asked the lady what was the price of each thing that we had ordered and it didn't add up. After that she came to me saying oh I accidentally charge you an extra torta.

The food is not worth the price Torta $8 quesadillas $8 Tacos $2 Large agua de horchata $2 which honestly to me that was a small Very pricey wouldn't go back !!!!!!

I was a little bit perturbed when they said they charge extra for cheese. However, the food was delicious so about a day or two later, I decided to take my mom and my niece with me and my husband to go eat What they could do to better the place I think that if they played music, not too loud, but just added some music and also maybe had a few options of the tacos such as plain with this and that a little bit more explanatory because my first tacos to go were huge and Big and me getting tacos. There were small and I was disappointed. I was able to get some stuff added to it. It definitely was less meat than the first time. I did notice it was a couple different people working. I don't know if that has anything to do with it. One key thing about a restaurant is making sure that portions and so forth remain relatively the same because it can be disappointing or it could be the first time somebody comes and they don't come back My husband got himself asada and my brother got himself. I believe a Carnitas burrito with beans and everything else and I took a bite. That was delicious. That is definitely what I wanna get next time. Everybody was full. Everybody was happy all in all I wrote this place four out of five. I hope they continue to do well and I will be back.
